hunsader farms

A great time for children & adults alike. A beautiful setting for falls bounty & good time to spend a day walking around.

They have pumpkin cannon, Awesome! Corn Maze, fun! Tons of food, delicious! All kinds of shows, interesting and unique! Great for kids and even for those with out them. We went and stayed the whole day and still have more to do when we left.

If you have children or grandchildren, love tomatoes, strawberries, eggplants, nostalgic farm equipment, this is the place to go! We took our daughter & granddaughter...and we had a blast for not much money. There is NO admission fee! There is a lovely petting zoo...again NO fee: it has plenty of small goats, a llama, a mooing cow, a pig, rabbits, chickens, small donkeys, and others I have probably forgotten. My 2 yr old granddaughter loved it! You can purchase corn to feed the animals for 50cents (maybe a dollar a bag...I can't remember) a bag . There is great, locally made ice cream, and all kinds of jeliies, jams, boiled pnuts and other treats to purchase. Our REAL favorite activity was picking tomatoes! 70 very long, full rows of wonderful vine ripened red tomatoes, or green tomatoes if you want to make fried green tomatoes :-)...bring your own 5 gallon bucket...you get to fill it for $2/ bucket..that is 25-30lbs of tomatoes for $2!!!! Call for prices..that was the deal when we went the 19th and 12th of January. The strawberries were available, but we choose the tomatoes..there were also lovely looking eggplants and squash to pick. You can not beat this deal..if you do, please let me know where!!

I use to take my girls here. They have a small petting zoo where kids can feed and pet the animals. They also have seasonal fruits and veggies that you can pick from their large garden. If you don't feel like picking or if it is off season, they have a vegetable stand out front. We do love this place but my girls are nearing teenage years. We use to come quite often but they have outgrown it. It still has a special place in our heart. If I may add, I do wish they would go down on their pricing for the Fall Festivals. I find them a bit overpriced. We can once and never returned. It was terribly expensive. I can't stand when places have an event and charge for parking, perhaps if they eliminated that it would be helpful. We paid for parking, admission for four and had some special treats and spent nearly $70. We have not been back since.

Again, parking $5, entry $10, 10 seconds on a zip line $10 bucks, maze 2., charge for everything. We used to be Deerfield Fair fans in NH, the best thing is seeing animals, 4H, shows. NOTHING here but opening your wallet all day.! My biggest issue was the "butterfly garden", soooo not a garden. Don't let them in again. Buys 2$ potted plants, spaces them around under a net, and let's the kids go for 2$ a head. So many beautiful dead butterflies from the constant abuse. One more thing, swamp buggy ride, $5, where was the swamp, it was a rude thru a field!

THIS place....where to start! My family and I visited Hunsader Farms for the Fall festivities today. We usually go to Sweetfield Farm for our annual fall visit, but we decided to try out Hunsader this year, because it looked promising. Boy were we wrong!! First off, admission is $10, which is fine, but then you get inside and pretty much EVERYTHING is extra! And lots extra! For example, the corn maze is an extra $2, the butterfly garden is an extra $2, and the bounce house is an extra $3! Seriously, $3 for the jumpy house?! Lets say those prices don't scare you away, the amount of animal cruelty going on really should...I hope! There are these poor ponies tied to this "wheel o death", that goes round and round and round, ALL day! There is this poor camel with what looks to be a leather saddle on its back, in the hot Florida sun, that gets kids loaded on its back, and goes in a teeny tiny circle, ALL day! Then there's the horses that you can purchase a tiny cup of oats for $1 and feed them. Did anyone ever stop to think that these creatures might be so full that their stomach is going to explode at any moment?!! And lets not forget the circus animals in the circus tent, which I personally did not go into see the poor dears, but I can only imagine. The amount of ignorance I saw at Hunsader Farms was far more than I ever, ever want to see in my lifetime again! EVER!! Needless to say, we will NOT be returning, and will be going to support Sweetfield farms!!

This should not be called a pumpkin festival. Glorified carnival with a built in flea market. Overcharged and underwhelming. Nothing to see here

we went as a family of 3.......Paid 5$ to park..30$ for all..it was so extremely packed.with all the money they take in you would think they would be able to ACCOMADATE a large croud.,NO SEATS,there were 12 picnic tables . we were walking on wood chips and crushed shells. over bye the animals the smell was terrible because of the porte pottieswaited in.long lines to get terrible food. the shows were all scheduled at the same time,so we only got to see a few things.,they were ok but always asking for moneythey have been there for a long time but it definetly went down hill....this turned into a money money hungry festivil..ILL NEVER GO AGAIN AND WILL NOT RECCOMEND to anyone,,,BEWARE

Hunsaders puts on one heck of a Halloween party! The farm has so much to do, and you can spend a whole day there! There are animals to feed and pet, a playground for the little ones, live bands, fresh fruit and home made goodies, vendors in the crafts area selling their trinkets, and games for the kids. Granted you'd better bring some cash because everything costs something, but with the games, they donate it all to different charities, which I think is awesome. The grilled corn vendor is one of the best there. Kids enjoy the butterfly experience, and having the stunt shows with the motorcycles gives them something exciting to watch. There is also a circus (free) a couple times a day. You'll have to pay to park, and be careful of fire ants in the field. If you have small children, pushing strollers can be difficult, as the fields are rough terrain. Go visit the corn cannons and try to hit the target. Watch the pumpkin cannon shoot a pumpkin high into the sky every hour on the hour. And take the hayride around the perimeter of the farm. It's bumpy, but it's fun!

Date of visit is date of review... we actually went to their fall Pumpkin Festival several years back.It's a long trip out there. Once there, you need to pay for parking in their gigantic unused field. Then you must pay to get in the door. Everything there that day was about making money. Yes, that's what a business is about, but it just left us wondering why we'd come... it took away any meandering enjoyment we had. Pay to park. Pay to get in. Pay for events. Pay for food. Pay for trinkets. I'm surprised there weren't pay toilets as well!I'm not against paying for enjoyment, but this was a rather blatant abuse of people's desire to have a fun fall day. Even at a county fair there are enough free items/events to seem to make it worth your cost to get in.I don't feel I'm conveying fully the impression I have of this business, but I just don't recommend.

We had read that they have fainting goats here. I know, right! Goats that faint when they get excited or nervous or startled or near enough anything! I had to see these critters. We drove along there and parked for no charge. We went in and met the goats for no charge. I got bitten by an emu, again no charge! The goats had had babies just that week and there were lots of teeny weeny baby goats around which were too cute for words. SQUEEEE! I squeeed and cooed and marvelled at their gorgeous cuteness. There was a llama and a cow and some goosey type creatures, a few bitey emus and some rabbits and lil creatures. You can buy corn to feed them with, which is how come I got bitten by the emu. I enjoyed this cute place for the lovely animals. I would go again for a goat fix. Not one of those goats so much as looked vaguely giddy, let alone fainted......

On the expensive side - the entrance fee ($8.00 for adults) and $5.00 to park = most of the vendors reasonably priced, a lot of charities got proceeds. The food was out of the park expensive. (no pun intended!) We (3 adults) had an enjoyable few hours anyway.

I was really looking forward to attending the Pumpkin Festival. It sounded like a great family activity for a warm October Sunday. When we got there we paid $5 for parking and then $8 each for me and my husband to get in. The kids were free. Okay, twenty-one dollars, I figured that would be all the costs. I was wrong. The hayride was free, but pretty much everything else cost money. Even the corn maze! ($2 a person) There were many intriguing activities, but most ran $5 to $10 a person. Since we are a family of five, I had to say "No," "No," "No," all afternoon. I think they shouldn't charge $8 to get in if they're going to charge so much for each activity. It was just disappointing...

Price to park and price to get in really got you nothing.Corn maze an additional fee was less than 2 ft. tall.Corn toss both machines broken,did I mentional another fee.Hay ride and buggy ride,another fee.Crafts were nothing to write home about.Would not drive next year and hour and fifteen minutes to go.sorry,.

What a nice day at the Pumpkin Festival. The weather was fall like in the shade which was a treat. The property is is large with many activities...Pumpkin patches, pony ride, arts and crafts and petting zoo's to name a few. Everyone is very nice. One of the highlights was listening to the blue grass bands at the boogie barn. Looking forward to returning next year. Look on the Hunsader Farms website for directions as Map-Quest was not correct.
